Brake Discs Dimensions

[xpbernardo]

Guys. A little help here.
I bought a new set of ATE brake discs (only reference available from them for the Rekord C), but the height is completely off. They´re not even 4x100 PCD!!!! Packaging error?? I don´t know... I had to return them.
My original discs are way more tall. Seems they´re like the first picture
Thoughts?

Die Bremsscheiben haben einen anderen Lochkreis als die Felgen. Das ist schon so ok.

Which size do you have and which do you expect? OTR is quite reliable.

I didn´t buy in OTR, but I´m planing to do it now..
The problem with the ATE ´s is that the height of the disc is way more less than mine, so cannot be correct..Brake pads would be missaligned...
The other ones in the picture from OTR look correct ..
As for the disc´s bolt pattern, how can they be different and fit the 4x100 studs????

This is ATE specs for the Rekord C only Reference they have.... My discs are way more tall than 55,5mm...

Bremsscheiben werden NICHT an den Radbolzen befestigt.

Die 55,5mm sind korrekt. Warum du eine andere Höhe hast, weiß ich nicht. Hast du andere Bremssättel? Hast du falsch gemessen? Sieh dir das nochmal genau an.

I´m not near the car right now, but I´ll look into it with more attention. As far as the holes position , my bad. Didn´t look to the axle and assumed it was like a more "modern" car. But the height of the disc seemed way different. On the other hand I find very difficult ATE making it wrong...So...guess the odds are probably against me on this one...

All of the Rekord C Units with 4 Bolt Axle have 238mm Full Metal Discs.
5 Bolt Units like Commodore and Sprint have 271mm Full Metal Discs.

Later in the 70´s there are 246 Full Metal and 246mm ventilated Discs. Late Rekord D and complete later the 22i Rekord E2 the ventilated Discs.

The Calipers from Rekord C use an M8 to fix the Brake Line with a Bolt. Thats an Indicator for original Calipers.

For Example.

It's not the diameter. It's the dimension "D" in the picture I uploaded that is bigger in mine

You assume the height "D" of 55,5mm is not correct, right? What is the exact height "D" of the discs mounted on your car and what is the dimension "A"???

A dimemsion is spot on. 238
D is bigger. Don't know how much. Tomorrow at the end of the day I'll be near the axle and I'll check

[xpbernardo]

Mistery solved... Mesured my discs. Exactly 55,5mm..So the ATE discs I received were wrongly packaged because they weren´t 55,5mm for sure.
